SONGS
FOR
CHILDREN
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in
your hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3:16.
Then they brought young children to Him, that He should touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them. But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly
displeased, and said unto them, Let the little children come to Me, and do not
forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. Assuredly, I say to you, whoever
does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.
And He took them up in His arms, put His hands on them, and blessed them.
Mark 10:13-16. (NKJV).

My God is so BIG, so strong and so mighty,
There's nothing my God cannot do.

He is My Everything
He is my everything, He is my all.
He is my everything, both great and small.
He gave His life for me, made everything new.
He is my everything, now how about you?
Now when folks ask me, now when folks say,
Who is this Jesus you talk about every day?
I simply tell them, I simply say,
I live my life for Him in every way.
Some folks may ask me, some folks may say,
Who is this Jesus you talk about every day?
He is my Savior, He set me free.
Now, listen while I tell you what He means to me.
He is my everything, He is my all.
He is my everything, both great and small.
He gave His life for me, made everything new.

FAITH
I Believe
By faith I believe God spoke the world

So that all I see was made of things I cannot see.
By faith I believe God formed the first man
in His image,
Breathed in him the breath of life,
The same He breathed in me.
CHORUS:
Obedience
Obedience is the very best way

Doing it happily.
Action is the key. Do it immediately.

In the Beginning
Genesis 1 - 3
(Tune: The Mulberry Bush)
God made the heaven and the earth,
And the earth, and the earth,
God made the heaven and the earth,
It was in the beginning.
God made the sun and moon and stars,
Moon and stars, moon and stars,
God made the sun and moon and stars,
It was in the beginning.
God made Adam of the dust,
Of the dust, of the dust,
God made Adam of the dust,
It was in the beginning.
Eve was made of Adam's rib,
Adam's rib, Adam's rib,
Eve was made of Adam's rib,
It was in the beginning.
Then the devil came along,
Came along, came along,
Then the devil came along,
It was in the beginning.
"Eat this fruit and youll not die,
Youll not die, youll not die."
"Eat this fruit and youll not die."
It was in the beginning.
Eve ate fruit and gave to Adam,
gave to Adam, gave to Adam.
Eve ate fruit and gave to Adam.
It was in the beginning.
From the garden they must go,
they must go, they must go,
From the garden they must go,
It was in the beginning.
* Righteous Abel
Genesis 4:1-15; Matthew 23:35; Hebrews 11:4; 12:24
(Tune: Im Just A Little Flower)
There was a righteous man; his name was Abel.
He did what God had said; thats not a fable.
His offring pleased the Lord - more than his brothers.
Then sadly, hate a-gainst him was stirred.
His blood was shed that day - upon the fi-eld.
Bad sin was at the door, and Cain did yi-eld.
The blood cried up to God, and God decre-ed:
Now as a vag-a-bond Cain will flee.
Though Abel lost his life, he was rewarded.
Lord Jesus spoke of him; it is recorded.
Though Abels blood spoke for - a vengeance then,
Christs blood speaks now as an end to sin.

* Noahs Song
Genesis 6:8 - 8:22
(Tune: Bring Them In)
No-ah you are a man so good;
Try-ing to do the things you should.
Build Me an ark ex-act-ly so.
I will be with you where you go.
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Bring your famly from a-mong these men.
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Theyll be safe with-in the a-ark.
You must pro-tect the animals, too.
Youll make them come right in to you.
Two of each kind is what youll see.
Take food for each one. Trust in Me.
Bring them in, Bring them in,
Bring the an-i-mals with your own kin.
Bring them in, bring them in.
Theyll be safe with-in the a-ark.
For forty days the rain was heard.
Noah was safe; God kept His word.
For many months they stayed inside.
Waited until the earth was dried.
Bring them out, Bring them out,
Now leave the a-ark and walk a-bout.
Bring them out, Bring them out.
Look at the sky and see the rain-bow.

Leaders
Exodus through Judges
(Tune: The More We Get Together")
The Israelites had leaders, had leaders to follow,
The Israelites had leaders that God gave to them.
First Moses and Aaron who led them from Egypt,
And all through the wilderness they followed them.
The next one was Joshua, was Joshua, was Joshua.
The next one was Joshua, a great leader was he.
He led them to Canaan and marched
around Jericho,
He asked the sun to stand still and divided the land.
Next came the judges, the judges, the judges.
Next came the judges, 14 of them all.
They said, "Don't build idols, don't follow after Baal!"
They said, "Don't build idols or you will be sad!"
But they did not listen, did not listen, did not listen.
But they did not listen, and God punished them.
Their enemies, the Midianites and Amalekites,
attacked them,
Destroyed all their fields and animals. Oh No!
The people cried for help; they were very sad.
The people cried for help; God listened to them.
He then spoke to Gideon, who tore down Baal's altar
And chose Israel's army of 300 men.
The Israelites fought the Midianites with God's help,
with God's help.
The Israelites fought the Midianites and they
conquered them.
They held up their torches and blew their trumpets,
And smashed their pitchers and cried,
"The Sword of the Lord and of Gideon!"

whose light they could hide.
And a trump too which they blew when
Gideon gave them the cue.
Gideon's men came sneaking around
the Midianite camp.
Gideon's men came sneaking around
the Midianite camp.
Gideon's men came sneaking around.
The Midianites slept on the ground.
And they blew their horns and held their lamps
up high in the sky and they cried:
"The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!"

There was a large crowd in the way,
In the way, in the way.
There was a large crowd in the way,
So they climbed upon the roof.
They lowered him through the roof,
Through the roof, through the roof.
They lowered him through the roof
To Jesus down below.
Jesus said, "Get up and walk,"
Up and walk, up and walk.
Jesus said, "Get up and walk."
And at once the man was cured.
